Enjoy unforgettable moments navigating in one of the world’s most beautiful coastlines.
We are a family in love with the sea and Paraty. We’ve lived here for 15 years, with our feet in the sand. During this period we had the chance to explore every little corner of this amazing place. We traded the hussle and chaos of São Paulo for the slow pace and peacefulness of Paraty.
During this voyage of exploring Paraty, we found ourselves enchanted by an old wooden boat, a classic trawler built more than 40 years ago, a vessel so full of charm and history that we decided to buy it and renovate it entirely to its former glory. That’s how DEVAGAR (the name means “Slow”) entered our life.
DEVAGAR ESPLENDOR is a traditional local fishing boat, built by hand over a period of more than four years by the late Master Arinildo, one of the most respected naval carpenters of Araújo Island, in Paraty. It was built with great care and craftsmanship. It is a spacious and comfortable boat, and also a symbol of the preservation of the local culture of manual boat construction.
DEVAGAR PARATY is the newest member of the family. It is a brand new trawler boat made of fiberglass with wood finishing, and it was built from scratch in Paraty. We took great care of every little detail of the construction in order to assure a pleasant navigating experience in the Bay of Paraty.
It will soon be available for day trip rentals and overnight stays.
Beautiful colonial house in charming gated community. Very well located, just minutes away by foot from the Historical Center of Paraty. A perfect spot for relaxing and enjoying the historic city and the beauties of the region.

DEVAGAR Cancellation Policy
Cancellations must be requested no later than 48 hours before boarding time.
Cancellations made less than 24 hours before boarding will not be accepted.
A customer who wishes to cancel a tour, due to bad weather or a logistical problem, has two options:
1 – Cancel permanently and pay 25% of the total price (50% of the advance payment).
2 – Pay the full tour fare and reschedule the trip for another date. This date must be agreed upon on the day of the request for rebooking, and will be priced at a similar rate of the original tour (low season dates cannot be rescheduled for high season periods or holidays).
There are only two cases in which the payment of the fare will be refunded in full:
1 – When the weather conditions do not allow the boat to navigate safely, either due to storms or wind (There is no cancellation because of rain, unless the storm is deemed too dangerous to navigate).
2 – If a mechanical failure happens that stops the boat from navigating.
In this case, the tour can be rescheduled for a later date if you wish, or we will refund your payment in full.
For your confort and maximum safety, all our boats are manned by professional sailors, registered, exerienced and native from Paraty.
